I rarely had to do anything but write the monthly check, which was exactly what I wanted. No fuss, no muss. I used Dawn for years until I sold my home.

Dawn did a good job at cleaning our pool that was green when we bought the house. For the first few months, she worKed with us with keeping chlorine level low at just enough, per my request due to small kids. We had issue with them not always showing up when season got busy, but we stuck with the service. Unfortunately, this summer service went way down. We had several issues with them overusing the chemicals and my daughter burning her eyes. I mean a week after the service the pool would still reek and be very unpleasant. I talked to dawn after the first incident and she promised to get it under control. Unfortunately, a month later we had another instance of our daughter getting in the pool three days after the service, screaming and unable to open her eyes for two hours after, me calling pediatrician - real mess, we spent that afternoon stressing out and listening to a lot of 'mommy, why does it hurt so much' instead of enjoying our pool with the family like we planned. Needless to say, we had to cancel the service. We use pool every day in summer and need a reliable service, so this company haven't worked for us.

I am extremely happy with The Pool Lady. I work very long hours and have no time to do anything with the pool. They do the cleaning, chemicals, maintenance, etc. Dawn keeps me informed of any needed repairs. It is great to have a worry-free service provider like Dawn. My pool always looks great.
Description of Work: The Pool Lady (Dawn) has been maintaining my pool for over a year for $95 per month. She takes care of everything. The only thing I have to do is pay the bill each month. She is just great!

Excellent. See above for story.
Description of Work: I have a lap pool / spa hybrid. I moved in to the house in February. I had absolutely no idea how to maintain the pool. When I moved in, the pump was broken and the water was disgusting. Dawn cleaned out the pool and got it back in perfect shape. She also taught me how to clean maintain the pool. Once a month, she would come buy to clean the filter and the pool and to check the water. She would add whatever chemicals were necessary. Dawn answered all of my questions (and I had a lot). I would send her text messages or call her during the month and she would always respond promplty. I will continue to use her services as she is trustworthy, prompt and honest. She also does good work.

I was not happy wiht the service. I have a saltwater pool that requires very little care. The main reason I needed someone was so that my pool got a good scrub and vacuum every week adn the pool systems were taken care of. I was supposed to be serviced every friday but I NEVER was serviced on a Friday. The walls of my pool were not scrubbed and when I double checked the chemical balances at hte pool store they were never accurate.
Description of Work: She had agreed to vacuum the pool weekly, adjust any chemicals and scrub the sides of the pool.

Contacted customer for estimate 1 time pool cleaning, spoke with Dawn who seem to know what she was talking about. Customer stated she would call me the next day to let me know when she would be in the area and take a look at pool. Explained to customer I had another pool service cleaning but they did not do a good job. The pool was clear, no green except there was sediment at the bottom. Waited at home until sometime in the afternoon called customer and left message but no return call as yet and it has been 4 days later.
Description of Work: No service was done.

Response from THE POOL LADY & CO.
I apologize for not getting back to the member. I had a family emergency which at the time came first. She called me on a Friday afternoon, I told her I may be able to come out Saturday, but under circumstances I could not. I think its unfair for her to write an f report against me. I would not service her if she called again. She has had other companies out before that did not do what she wanted, and I know the other company, if she was not satisfied with them, there would be no pleasing her.

Great! Dawn was the only contractor that responded to my e-mail for service. She was responsive, professional and reliable. She also returned phone calls the same day which is rare for pool companies! Both her and her son Travis took time to answer my millions of questions. I look forward to this being an ongoing relationship.
Description of Work: Purchased a salt system and new automated cleaner for an existing inground swimming pool.

She did a great job getting the yellow algae out of the pool and bringing the pool back to sparkling clean. After a year or so of Triangle Pool Service doing my pool, it was looking very bad. She gets the work done, with her sons and employees' help, and it is hassle free for me. I told her that I wanted to do nothing about maintaining the pool besides writing her a monthly check, and she has more than kept her end of the bargain.
Description of Work: Solved a yellow algae and other problems caused by the poor service I was receiving from Triangle Pool Service. Cleans the pool weekly, supplies and administers chemicals, cleans the filter and baskets, and arranges for all repairs. I don't have to do anything but pay the monthly bill.

Very well, she made daily or visits every other day, until the green pool was cleaned out. The process took about two weeks. I'd say that overall, she charged be about 1/2 of what I expected this to cost. I was surprised and pleased about the frequency and attention of her visits to clear up this problem. I'm happy with her ongoing maintenance, I think she takes great care to keep the chlorine levels low, as I have a toddler using the pool daily.
Description of Work: Green Pool Clean up, and ongoing weekly pool maintenance.
